The More Sibyl Podcast Presents:
I'm thrilled to share an inspiring episode featuring Coach Sydney Kamanga, whose journey from Zambia to Scotland blends sports coaching, entrepreneurship, and glaucoma advocacy. Despite losing his vision to glaucoma in 2022, Coach Sydney empowers people with disabilities and raises awareness about this condition. Special thanks to Chulu from the Africana Woman Podcast for the introduction!
Raised in Zambia and Edinburgh, Sydney's diverse cultural foundation shaped his resilient spirit. Returning to Zambia in 2010, he founded K28 Fitness. His life changed with the onset of glaucoma, linked to blunt force trauma, challenging him to redefine resilience with loved ones' support.
Sydney's journey highlights the impact of early myopia, trauma, and the importance of regular check-ups while advocating for wellness and dismantling stigmas around preventive care. Navigating visual impairment in Zambia, he uses a reflector cane and technology like the BlindShell Classic 2 for mobility and connectivity, aiming to transform perceptions of disability.
Starting his day at 4 AM with workouts and virtual training, Sydney's dedication to professional and family duties challenges conventional ideas of strength. His story underscores the importance of community support and seeking assistance. Join us as Coach Sydney discusses how losing his sight enhanced his other senses, reshaping his coaching approach and fostering positivity.
